No sound since installing Ubuntu
I lost all sound after changing from Windows XP to Ubuntu. I installed it (ubuntu) again but no luck. Can anyone please help.

First see if sound isn't muted.
Open a terminal and type Code:
sudo alsamixerUse the arrow keys to navigate, up-down for the volume. To mute/unmute a channel, press "m" Kind regards |

Hi Repo,
I don't think the sound is muted as I checked the sound system references. Thanks. geddo but her is a screen shot of the sound system. sorry I couldn't past the shot. |
Did you run alsamixer?
Kind regards |
Hi Repo,
Yes I do run alsamixer. Thanks. Regards geddo |
Do you have sound when you use a headphone?
BTW, in alsamixer the "M" at the bottom of the channel means muted, "00" means not muted. Kind regards |
Hi Repo,
Yes I have sound when using the head phone. I am eager to know what that means? Regards geddo |
